stopping rushing is an alternative to procrastination. I acknowledge what is legitimately calling me, and move with dignity toward the demands. Will they dissolve and reform into shapes I can work with? Let me see...
I recently got a case of Bali belly which has slowed me down immensely. And although it’s uncomfortable and challenging at times, I’m also aware of what a gift it is, reminding my body to rest and slow down and just have some stillness for a bit. So I really resonated with this piece.
Thank you so much for stopping by, Megan. I’ve been to Bali 3 times and can so relate to what you’ve described in your note. While thankfully not having had to experience the Bali belly, your image of the rainy courtyard brings back so many happy memories. Thanks for sharing your journey.

That’s interesting and I never thought about that comparison. Hmmm. I’m a recovering rusher.

Glad I'll be walking those slow streets with you soon!
I love your ending! “the less you rush, the easier it is to let go . . .
and flow. . .
and grow.”¹
Here’s To all of us who wish to slow down and flow and grow. Doesn’t that sound nice?!
